EDA105 - Phobos

The Doctor and Lucie land on Phobos, one of the moons of Mars, which has become a hot spot for extreme tourism. Adrenaline junkies go gravity-boarding and wormhole-jumping while the local colonists try to ignore the interlopers.

Mid-season episodes like this fit in the mid-range of the Big Finish productions. The story is solid Doctor Who material, discovering a mysterious alien being that raises a few philisophical problems. The Doctor gets a few good lines, and Lucie manages to be a competent companion. Overall solid, but still not as memorable as other episodes.
